In Her Own Words
About her
Much of my adult life was spent overseas in various locations. Having enjoyed my job in PR/Retail for a successful London jewellery designer/retailer, I moved back to the south coast when the company relocated. It had been a surprise to find myself living in London at that time of my life and being amongst very young colleagues but it was great fun.
I have an enquiring mind, I'm eager to learn and love finding out about new people, places. I'm easy-going, chatty and aim to be kind and thoughtful. My outgoing personality sometimes hides the fact that I can feel a little shy inside but I am equally happy to sit quietly or have fun amongst many. I can handle most situations, comfortable in casual clothes or in something a little more glamorous and generally try to take life and its challenges in my stride. Enjoy sports, even if it is watching from the sidelines - I'm happy to support. Stil love motor racing (Goodwood events just down the road) and air shows/displays.
I'm looking for a relaxed start, friendship, companionship and to see where that might lead. Although I am busy with my part-time work and family, I've felt a little lost from time to time but then, I suppose, many people who find themselves here do, too. I yearn to drive through France again and to see the sunflowers in Tuscany, so a travel companion would also be wonderful.
About her ideal match
A sense of humour is very important and helps to keep everyone in life optimistic. I have a ready one and a slight sense of the ridiculous. You should be the same and have an energy for life. You will probably be a similar sort of person, and if a 'quiet' man, still have plenty of conversation, be confident and, when comfortable, outgoing. Kindness and consideration would be lovely - we all need TLC.
You are happy with yourself and your life (apart from wanting a lady in it) and are emotionally and financially secure. You are interested in the world and all that's in it. You may have lived the corporate/overseas life and know that, along with many great opportunities, it is also hard work - and all this perhaps brings you to where you are now.
Genuine, honest, fun-loving, positive man who remembers what it is like to share good times and have fun - a sense of humour is worth so much...
